Yes. Although most often I make initial choices that are based, partly, on aesthetics. Poorly organized user interfaces are the chief culprit here. Bad typography is another non-favorite; especially with apps that present a lot of type that needs to be read during use. Since I do a lot of design and development of and with graphics applications, I'm pretty particular about the appearance of things in general. I had a drawing application once that did a horrible job of rendering lines, especially curves. Bunches and knots galore. While the output looked okay at high enough resolutions, the onscreen display was a real impediment to its use. And things flickered terribly while moving elements around. And a certain large graphics application company switched to a dark grey color scheme for a lot of their apps that's really an affront to my older, squinting eyes. The fact that their UI's organization went to hell in a hand basket was just icing on the cake. The worse use of color that I can think of was a database editor from 25 or so years ago. I've forgotten the name, but if you got to using it too fast, changing screens, making large selections, etc., it could induce an epileptic fit faster than a Pokemon episode played at high speed.
